Илон Маскийн эзэмшлийн X платформ жилийн хугацаанд үргэлжилсэн бүтээн байгуулалтын үр дүнд Android үйлдлийн системд зориулсан аппликейшнээ сууринаас нь эхлэн бүрэн шинэчлэн даваа гарагт нэвтрүүллээ.
Тус компанийн бүтээгдэхүүн хариуцсан тэргүүн Никита Биер шинэ аппликейшнийг түүхэн дэх хамгийн том инженерийн төслүүдийн нэг гэж тодорхойлов. Kotlin болон Jetpack Compose технологийн үндсэн дээр бүтээгдсэн энэхүү хувилбар нь өмнөхөөсөө илүү хурдан, тогтвортой ажиллагаатай болж, хэрэглэгчийн туршлагыг сайжруулсан байна.
Өнгөрсөн оны аравдугаар сард Android хувилбарын таталтын тоо дээд цэгтээ хүрсэн нь энэхүү шинэчлэлийг тэргүүлэх чиглэл болгоход нөлөөлжээ. Ингэснээр Android зах зээл дээрх хэрэглэгчдэд илүү чанартай үйлчилгээ үзүүлэх боломж бүрдэж байгаа бөгөөд цаашид шинэ функцуудыг хурдтайгаар нэмэх суурь тавигдлаа.
Одоогоор хуучин төхөөрөмжүүдийн гүйцэтгэлийг сайжруулах, Spaces функцыг нэвтрүүлэх зэрэг ажлууд үргэлжилж байна. Мөн видео засварлагч, видео хариу үйлдэл, cashtags болон тусгай цагийн хуваарийн функцууд удахгүй нэмэгдэхээр төлөвлөгджээ. Android хэрэглэгчид Google Play Store-оор дамжуулан аппликейшнээ шинэчлэх боломжтой.

Nearly a year ago, Elon Musk-owned X announced it would begin rebuilding the Android version of its app, which had not held up well compared with its iOS counterpart. On Monday, the company shipped the refreshed app, which is now available to download.
The new Android version of X was built from scratch and promises improvements to loading, scrolling, notifications, and more, X said in its announcement.
The update has been in development for nearly a year. Last August, X head of product Nikita Bier said the social network company was putting together an Android “dream team” to reshape the experience. Later that fall, he also noted that X had one of its biggest weeks ever for Android downloads in October — a reason why the new app was a priority for the company.
With today’s release, Bier described the effort as “one of the largest engineering projects” in the company’s history, saying the new Android app was built from scratch rather than simply being updated.
“It’s faster, smoother and more reliable. But most of all: it will enable us to build new features at lightning speed,” Bier wrote on X. The Elon Musk-owned social network has been rolling out a number of new features in recent months, including X Money and X Chat, which were given their own standalone apps.
The Android release could also potentially entice more users in global markets, where Android is the dominant smartphone platform, to either download or return to X, after years of platform neglect. (Problems on Android were so bad at one point last year that the X app couldn’t even load X posts when users clicked links.)
However, Bier warned that there are still some rough edges to iron out, including improving performance on older Android devices and adding support for Spaces, X’s live audio feature. Those updates are still underway. Bier added that other features, including the new video editor, the react-with-video feature, cashtags, and custom timelines are also coming soon to Android.
Existing Android users can get the new X app by updating their existing app through the Google Play Store.
